Sell Off???
 
With the "pending doom" on August 2nd the analysts are talking about a market crash and interest rate explosion......

Even with the tax penalties, should I consider selling everything, cashing out, and waiting to see what happens?

What's yalls approach??

ShadMan 07-28-2011 10:46 AM

I sold everything I owned last Friday. Even if a deal is reached, I expect that our debt will be downgraded and the market will crap itself, at least temporarily.

These are only my opinions and should not be considered investment advice. ;)

I am going to hold........I did move some to more conservative funds.........but I do not think it's going to be as bad as Obama is threatening us with.

As for higher interest rates, I am locked in on the home, and on the Dave Ramsey plan for cars, pay in cash, used.

This is going to affect people that are living on credit cards more than anyone.
Obama is a raging idiot.

Precisely

Dink 07-28-2011 11:45 AM

I got some GE......can't go wrong with it!

mstulb 07-28-2011 11:45 AM

yep yep
 
last I checked you want to buy low and sell high. Never sell during a declining market, unless you are ept to accepting a loss on your investment.
Hope it does fall I will buy as much as I can when it does, I made more money in 08' from purchasing declining stocks-peeps stupid sometimes.

That's kinda my point! Sell now while I'm up, watch market crash. Buy back at a lower rate and hope to makeeugh to cover the tax penalties

Great job! You could have put your money in an index fund and had roughly the same return. Since I used to be a financial advisor, I rarely give tips because people take them too seriously. But here is the last one I gave:

http://www.saltytexan.com/forum/show...ghlight=kodiak

(Sorry for linking another forum, Casey, but it was necessary to illustrate a point ;) )

BTW, when I recommended this company they were at $.28 , and now they are at $6.75. You want to calculate that rate of return, Jeremy? ;)
